Nice work, Mike.  I wonder if both browsers would support the following?  If
so, it's fewer lines of code to maintain.

<div id="msg" class="msg_hidden">

<style media="screen" type="text/css">
    .msg_visible { position: absolute; z-index: 1; top: 100px; left:
 0px; visibility: visible; }
     .msg_hidden { position: absolute; z-index: 2; top: 10px; left:
 10px; visibility: hidden }
</style>

<script>
 function downLoad(){
  oMsg = document.getElementById("msg");
  oMsg.className = "msg_visible";
 }
</script>
